Ah...you say that Tony...but his 2 goals against Southampton and Bournmouth show the lad has a good eye for goal and a fantastic touch...I think in a Villa type team he would get 12 goals a year.
I wonder why Villa paid £30m for Ollie Watkins when they could've probably got Vydra for less than half of that.

Lots.
plenty, it appears, would have us build our attack around him ;)
I’m his uncle but I don’t think it’d be bad if we had a formation that gets him in the no.10 as a plan b, think that would be decent, kicking the ball 50 feet into the air isn’t his strong point tho

For what it's worth I think Burnley, and SD's tactics, are the wrong fit for MV.
The trouble is that it appears that so are most of the other clubs he's played for.

With the exception of Derby, where he was undoubtedly a success.

Said it before in the past but a 4-5-1 with him as no.10 would be a good option, would like to see us mix it up in the cup games as we never take them seriously anyway

I don’t think that his ability is so huge that we need to change the whole team around to suit him.

I think he’d do a better job than Hendrick as a 10 but if it’s never tried there then we’ll never know, we had our best ever league position playing mainly 4-5-1 which seems to have been forgotten about.
